I will see you Friday Jesse! I am also excited for you looking at your pic. What bikes are you racing against in this pic?
The one I'm chasing and the one in the back are kids on KTM RC390 cup bikes from the Motoamerica series, the guy right behind me is Steve Bancroft on a Ninja 300.
You're coming out this weekend? That's awesome! Racing or just riding Friday?

Just a track day on Friday. I have an old buddy on his GSXR and a forum member on his R3 as well.
Still got the stock tires on? :D
I replaced the tires at ~750 miles and sold the old ones for $80. Running my favorite tires at the moment, S20 EVOs.

How's the new surface at Buttonwillow?
Been a few years for me, always liked BW.


Good luck racing. Any chance of seeing some track video's?

There's a few race videos on my website under the race reports. More coming in January. :)
